Sometimes even I am shocked at what I hear and am stumped as to what I should say. Recently I heard a child tell his grandmother who was speaking badly about the Obama administration and the policies her dislike for the majority of congress speak up and say "grandma, don't say those things or you will go to jail."

Why would an eight year old think such a thing? Where would he get such ideas? After picking myself up form the floor, I asked him and he said "I just thought it was so."

I took it upon myself to quickly educate him on the Constitution and the role of our elected officials. I took the time to explain to him that all elected officials work for us the voters and that it is our duty and our right to let them know if we do not agree with them or if we think they are doing a bad job. I essentially explained to him "We are their bosses not the other way around."

Now this boy does attend public school so that could explain his mindset, but hopefully I have given him some insight and his parents and grandparents will continue to reiterate it.

Now with all that said and done, we have what appears to be an intentional crash of a small plane into an IRS building by someone who has been speaking up against what he felt was wrong. The man who obviously had issues beyond disliking governmental policies took his own life.

What will the ramifications be for his actions? Well, I can only speculate that others who complain about things, like Obamacare, the IRS, Big government, government intrusion and so on may bring the little boy's fear to a reality.

We should never put the actions of one person into the same ranks as the rest of a group. That would be stereotyping something that most PC liberals lobby against.

Before the January 19th election of Republican Scott Brown as United States Senator from Massachusetts, we were being told that ObamaCare would be crammed down our throats whether we liked it or not and that any effort to defeat this monstrosity was hopeless.

After Brown's election in socialistic Massachusetts sent shock waves through the liberal Democratic establishment, too many pro-gunners had assumed that we had won -- and that we could just stop fighting and go home.

But a football team doesn't leave the field and go home at half time, even if it has a healthy lead.

And Nancy Pelosi hasn't given up her efforts to socialize America's health care system and bring your private medical matters under strict government control. Fox News is reporting today that congressional leaders are working on a compromise.

Pelosi herself has said that, if the "gate" to ObamaCare is locked, she will climb over the fence -- or pole-vault over the wall -- or parachute to a liberal socialist victory.

Pelosi's only viable strategy is to get a reluctant House to pass the Senate's bribe-laden, Medicare-cutting, gun-banning bill -- but do so in conjunction with a "fix-it" bill which would pass the House at the same time under quickie "reconciliation" procedures.

We still have plenty of parliamentary tricks up our sleeves to try to block this. But the easiest way to bury ObamaCare once and for all is to get just one House member to switch his vote -- from supporting ObamaCare last fall to opposing it now.

The President's spokesman, Robert Gibbs, is boasting that they are one vote away from passing it in the House. So if we can switch one vote, we can take the "undead" ObamaCare bill and drive a stake through its heart, cut its head off at a midnight crossroads, shoot it with a silver bullet, put garlic around its neck, and bury it in a lead casket with a crucifix on the top. And, given the damage which ObamaCare would do to America, this is hardly too much overkill.

ACTION: So, we are asking you to write your congressman again. Tell him you want a commitment to oppose the corrupt bribe-laden Senate ObamaCare bill -- and to oppose any effort to fix it up.

Nancy Pelosi hasn't given up her efforts to socialize America's health care system and bring me and private medical matters under strict government control. She has said that, if the gate to ObamaCare is locked, she will climb over the fence -- or pole-vault over the wall -- or parachute to a liberal socialist victory.

Pelosi's only viable strategy is to get the House to pass the Senate's bribe-laden, Medicare-cutting, gun-banning bill -- but do so in conjunction with a "'"fix-it" bill which would pass the House at the same time.

The Senate would then kill the "fix-it" bill under the arcane "Byrd rule" -- but gullible House members would claim that wasn't their fault.

It is time to bury ObamaCare once and for all. This legislation will allow the ATF to troll a health/gun database in order to take away firearms from tens of millions of Americans. Not only that, the federal bill is jam-packed with billions of dollars of bribes paid to buy the votes of unscrupulous senators and will impose a host of new taxes on me and my family.

So please make the following commitments:

* To vote against the bribe-laden, gun banning Senate ObamaCare bill under any circumstances; and,

* To publicly declare that the corrupt monstrosity is too sleazy to be cleaned up by any fix-it bill.

If you believe the American people are angry now, wait until Nancy Pelosi shoves this down our throats.

Please take this abomination off the table now -- once and for all. And, please let me hear from you that you will not vote for ObamaCare.

David Olofson continues to rot in jail because his AR-15 malfunctioned and the government pulled the wool over the jury's eyes to get a conviction. David's wife and three children have had to struggle on without him. GOA members have generously pitched in with monthly or one-time contributions to enable GOA to make the Olofson's car and mortgage payments. The economy is rough and some regular supporters have had to cut off their contributions. If you could step up to the plate with $10 or $20 a month, or make a one-time contribution to the Olofson Relief Fund, please go to: http://gunowners.org/olofson.htm

You can tell what folks are thinking about most by listening to what they talk about. Pretty simple principle.

President Obama gave a "jobs" speech in Ohio a few days ago, and we analyzed it hoping to find some good policy ideas for getting our economy moving again. Instead, we found something amazing.

The president actually said the word "taxpayers" two times and he said the words "small business" 8 times. But, guess how many times he referred to himself with "I" or "me"?!? You have to watch the video to find out, and you'll have to see it to believe it! Watch the video.

So what can we expect tonight?

You may have heard that President Obama has proposed a three-year "freeze" on federal spending, and that may sound good on its face. But it's really a gimmick to make it look like the administration has heard your voice about the size of government.

The non-partisan Congressional Budget Office just released its projections for the coming year and they found something interesting. Without Obama's "freeze," discretionary spending would actually decrease over the next four years. So by freezing spending at today's higher level, it would mean spending more!

One more thing about the "freeze" - it freezes in place all of the huge spending increases from Obama's first year in office. When the stimulus was passed, we were told it would be temporary; Obama's freeze would extend that spending for three more years. Don't be fooled.

And, when he talks about job creation, think about the president's two top priorities – a health care takeover and cap-and-trade. Both drive up government spending, take us even deeper into debt, raise taxes on American families and businesses, and kill hundreds of thousands of private sector jobs.

As the president attempts to re-invent his brand tonight, let's make sure we keep the truth detector running full speed.

Thats right, thats what the old main stream media is touting. Never mind that Acorn had a big hand in this years census but has supposedly been ousted by the Census bureau.

All that aside, one has to ponder for a moment the title of this piece. Let's see if I participate in the Census, I will be counted and ensure that my state gets the proper amount of congressional representatives. If I do not participate then I may miss out on some representation.

Now, I can hear the comments well. "Um, JP, We haven't been represented in some time."

What does that mean? Well let's see. We the people said no stimulous deals. One was passed under Bush, one was passed under Obama. We said no unfair trade deals, NAFTA passed under Clinton, CAFTA & Others passed under George W, Bush. We said no to National ID card and Real ID was passed. We said no to bailouts of banks, Trillions of tax dollars were handed over with little to no oversight. We said, get China out of the WTO, congress votes them back in. We say no to National Health Care Control Bill, both houses vote to pass their version.

So I am loosing anything by not being counted? Any federal $$ dollars lost to my area means less of my tax dollars being wasted on local pet projects. Should I care?

If you want to be counted, then you need to stand up, speak up and Live Free.

Congratulations on a tremendous victory on Tuesday! And thank you all for your help in getting Scott Brown elected to the U.S. Senate in Massachusetts.

Gun Owners of America was the first national gun lobby to endorse Brown, and with your aid, he was receiving more than one million dollars a day in his comeback win over anti-gun Martha Coakley.

With your help, Massachusetts -- the bluest of blue states -- has sent a message to Washington: take your ObamaCare bill and shove it!

By a vote of 52% to 47%, Massachusetts voters sent anti-ObamaCare candidate Scott Brown to the Senate -- defeating liberal icon Martha Coakley. And D.C. Democrats are beginning to understand that GOP victories in New Jersey and Massachusetts are merely a precursor to the electoral bloodbath still to come in November.

Obama-Pelosi still committed to passing socialized health care

But has the prospect of losing two hundred congressional seats caused Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi to back off of their efforts to shove this bill down the throats of the American people?

Amazingly, no.

It"s like you stepped in something. And, as much as you scrape and scrape the bottom of your shoe, you just can"t get rid of the smell.

At first, Pelosi's strategy was to get the House to pass the Senate version of ObamaCare -- verbatim -- so that the bill goes straight to the Oval Office, without having to break another filibuster in the Senate (which no longer has a filibuster-proof majority).

Thankfully, there are SO MANY rank-and-file Democrats who have revolted against this strategy (Democrats who are scared to death of losing their seats) that Rep. Pelosi yesterday said the Senate bill is not viable... WITHOUT CHANGES.

"I don't see the votes for [the Senate bill] at this time," Pelosi said. But note the words "at this time."

Despite huge obstacles, Pelosi trying to resurrect ObamaCare

Pelosi did say there's a "foundation in that bill" they can work with. So Pelosi may just try to pass one big fix-up bill -- using a "reconciliation" bill that will only need 51 votes when it goes to the Senate -- or simply break up the Senate bill into smaller pieces and send those parts to the President.

But remember that the Senate health care bill which Pelosi now seeks to fix contains the following problems:

* It will allow BATFE to troll a health/gun database in order to take away firearms from tens of millions of Americans;

* It is jam-packed with billions of dollars of bribes paid to buy the votes of sleazy senators;

* It will impose a host of new taxes, force Americans to buy expensive insurance which they can't afford, and increase insurance premiums in the individual market by 10 to 13%; and,

* It will continue the bankrupting of our country by increasing the deficit by half a trillion dollars, when the underhanded accounting tricks are discounted.

You can be sure that most, if not all, of these problems will be left untouched.

ACTION: So please contact your Representative. Tell him or her to vote against the bribe-filled Senate ObamaCare bill, and that no amount of "fixing" will make this bill acceptable. The Senate already tried to fix the gun problems in the bill but failed miserably.

You are being urged by Nancy Pelosi to dive into the Senate's moral cesspool and pass its ObamaCare bill -- either cut up in pieces or, as a whole, accompanied by a "fix up" reconciliation bill.

If you do this, the Massachusetts results are just the faintest of forebodings of the electoral bloodbath which will erupt in November.

The American people have made it clear they do not want Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid to cram this bill down our throats. And yet, Pelosi delusionally concludes that the path to electoral success is to keep cramming and cramming and cramming and cramming.

In case you have forgotten, the Senate ObamaCare bill:

* Will allow BATFE to troll a health/gun database in order to take away firearms from tens of millions of Americans;

* Is jam-packed with billions of dollars of bribes paid to buy the votes of sleazy senators;

* Will impose a host of new taxes, force Americans to buy expensive insurance which they can't afford, and increase insurance premiums in the individual market by 10 to 13%; and,

* Will continue the bankrupting of our country by increasing the deficit by half a trillion dollars, when the accounting tricks are discounted.

Please tell me now that you oppose this bill and that no amount of "fix up" will make it acceptable. The Senate already tried to fix the gun problems in the bill but failed miserably. It's time to pull the plug on ObamaCare.

Check out the Second Amendment March speakers lineup. In addition to GOA's Larry Pratt, confirmed speakers include: Former Texas state Representative Suzanna Hupp (a survivor of the Luby's massacre), Sheriff Richard Mack, Stewart Rhodes of Oath Keepers and many others.

The people of Massachusetts have a great opportunity to make history. They have the chance to turn the tide in American politics and have a voice of reason and someone who will adhere to the the Constitution as their oath of office requires them to do.

Face it, Democrates have had their hand at it for nearly 50 years and look where Massachusetts is today. They offer a health care program similar to the one Obama and Co want to be instilled upon the American populace.

Just like the same plan, the people of Mass. are forced to buy the insurance even if they do not want it. The health control bill has one major setback. The state cannot afford to run it. So Massachusetts needed an out and they found one by creating a national health care plan that would allow all of the people of the US suffer under the same sort of system.

The people have a clear choice, Another democrat, a Republican or an Independent name John Kennedy who heralds attributes our founding fathers would be proud to have. And it will be easy for the people to vote, they simply have to check the Box with the name Kennedy like they have been doing for the past 50 years. Do so and we all win.

My forefathers, some of the very people who signed the Declaration of Independence and those who have sacrifice in all the wars since did not do so in order to create a Republic that was nothing more than a tyrannical nanny state.

We the people must be willing to sacrifice all that we have or we will give it up to those in DC who think that owning property and actually living is something that should not be allowed without being taxed into oblivion.

Our goal this election year should be to make a bold statement. Not just vote out some of the incumbents, but vote each and every one of them out. Replace them not with neocons or fake conservatives, but replace them with those who are closer in line with the Constitution Party or with Constitution Party members.

If you fail to find people of that caliber where you are voting then you must become that person or persuade someone to run for office. THROW THE BUMS OUT and LONG LIVE FREEDOM!

If we do nothing, we loose everything.

We the people of the United States want only representatives in public office who will adhere to the Constitution of the United States and will not vote on any bill until they have actually read it.

We want our representatives on the Federal Level to begin repealing all unconstitutional legislation before passing any new legislation. This includes National Health Care, Cap & Trade NAFTA, CAFTA etc.

We want the Federal Reserve audited and then shut down. A private company should not be in control of our monetary system. It needs to be controlled as required by the Constitution. If you do not know those requirements, then do not run for office. Money should be sound and backed by silver or gold as prescribed in our Constitution.

We want the UN out of the US and the US out of the UN. This global governing body should have no say in the affairs of our government. If they want to make suggestions, we will gladly take them under advisement.

We want the Federal Government audited and reduced. The bailouts given to the bankers could have just as easily been divided among the people of the United States to boost our ecconomy, but we want neither bailouts or handouts, only the opportunity to pursue happiness without government intervention as our founding fathers so desired and created the Constitution as a guide for all future representatives to follow.

We want to live our lives in private without being spied on and watched as though we are all about to do something criminal. It is time to return to the system Innocent Until Proven Guilty not Presumed Guilty. We do not want to be looked upon as suspicious because we simply want to be left alone and Live Free according to the US Constitution.

If you cannot adhere to these terms, then please do not run for office, we don't want you. We are tired of the fake left / right paradigm. We are awake.

Hey, if you think the health care control bill that just passed in the senate and will be negotiated in committee was too invasive to your privacy, then you obviously have not been to an airport recently.

Since a Nigerian man without proper credentials was allowed to board a flight into the US and attempted to bring down a plane, the incompetent TSA is pushing for new rules to stop these types of attacks.

In Briton it was just announced that the security at the airports will be increased and within the next three weeks, full body scans will be done on all passengers. Don't want to be scanned naked? Too bad, or just do not fly.

Here in the US, the TSA has resorted to full body searches. Groping men, woman and tiny babies in their most personal areas. Some of the old mainstream media showed a few passengers who said they were fine with it so long as it kept them safe. Apparently, they know nothing of Benjamin Franklin.

How long before child molesters, and sexual deviants start working for the TSA? Lets pray that no one decides to sneak something in a body cavity. I guess TSA'S response to that will be invasive cavity searches while you wait to be groped.

Since TSA accidentally let out their security plans last month along with full images of credentials that could be copied to bypass their security system online, I would be wary of flying anyways.

Is it time for change? Give up all our liberty for a little safety and have neither or stand up and say enough already?

One of the biggest changes is to stop voting for candidates with an (R) or a (D) after their names. Start supporting candidates that support the Constitution. Yes punish the incumbents by voting them out, but don't let fake conservatives in office either. Check out the Libertarian or the Constitution Party and get our nation back to where it needs to be. Justice and Liberty for all.
